[Update] Weiner and Abedin held a press conference to address the situation. In a PR move that's irritated Twitter/female journalists/the world, Abedin reiterated that she continues to love and believe in him, and the issue is nobody's business but their own. "Anthony's made some horrible mistakes both before he resigned from Congress and after, but I do very strongly believe that that is between us and our marriage," she said. "I love him, I have forgiven him, I believe in him, and as we have said from the beginning, we are moving forward." Way to use your wife as a mouthpiece, brah! And then again, Huma made the choice to stand up there too, even though this latest indiscretion apparenty happened last year, while she was pregnant with their baby. Jeebus.

A year after the former congressman resigned after texting a Vegas blackjack dealer a shot of his kibbles n' bits, Weiner had a six-month sexual involvement with a 22-year-old girl on Facebook that involved promises of setting her up with a job at Politico and getting her a mistresses' apartment in Chicago — as long as she promised a "solid, hard delete" of any proof of the affair. (If he believed she was gonna do THAT, I have 500 Gideon Bibles to sell him at a great price.) And, yes, penis pics are reportedly also involved, and will reportedly be leaked soon.

Amazingly, Weiner also referred to himself as "Carlos Danger" to the unnamed woman. Because "Dickhole Johnson" and "Thinks With His Penis McGee" were already taken as Facebook handles, I guess.

After multiple outlets reached out to Team Weiner to confirm or deny the allegations, he released the following statement confirming the story, via USA Today:

"I said that other texts and photos were likely to come out, and today they have. As I have said in the past, these things that I did were wrong and hurtful to my wife and caused us to go through challenges in our marriage that extended past my resignation from Congress. While some things that have been posted today are true and some are not, there is no question that what I did was wrong. This behavior is behind me. I've apologized to Huma and am grateful that she has worked through these issues with me and for her forgiveness. I want to again say that I am very sorry to anyone who was on the receiving end of these messages and the disruption that this has caused. As my wife and I have said, we are focused on moving forward."

This also comes out following a huge cover story in New York Magazine about Weiner's chances for the mayoral race. Are they shot now? Mayor Carlos Danger does have kind of a ring to it.
